Only in circumstances where the Embassy deems it necessary to do so, a Short Validity Passport is given for a term of six months.

Please inform applicants that passports with such short validity cannot be renewed. The Embassy will accept applications for passports with ten-year validity from those who pay the standard passport reissue charge and provide the required supporting documentation. Our emergency lost passport replacement services will help to get a lost passport very quickly and will help to get a new passport as early as possible at a reasonable price.
